11-13 December 1969
Midsummer Mink, written in 1965, was a follow-up to the playwright’s earlier 1958 hit comedy Breath Of Spring, which the Players had performed in 1967.

Brigadier Rayne doesn’t have much financial success from his charity concerns until Nan is passed a mink coat by a crook on the run. Soon they are running a well organised receiving system for stolen furs, giving all their profits to charity. With the house full of furs and a police inspector making inquiries, they decide its time to retire – temporarily.

The show was favourably reviewed by the Kentish Times.
